DETAILED EXPLANATION

Look at 227%2AT-14755=highlight_red%28+3500+%29.
Moved these terms to the left highlight_green%28+-3500+%29
It becomes 227%2AT-14755-highlight_green%28+3500+%29=0.
Look at 227%2AT-highlight_red%28+14755+%29-highlight_red%28+3500+%29=0.
Added fractions or integers together
It becomes 227%2AT%2Bhighlight_green%28+-18255+%29=0.
Look at 227%2AT%2Bhighlight_red%28+-18255+%29=0.
Removed extra sign in front of -18255
It becomes 227%2AT-highlight_green%28+18255+%29=0.
Look at highlight_red%28+227%2AT-18255+%29=0.
Solved linear equation highlight_red%28+227%2AT-18255=0+%29 equivalent to 227*T-18255 =0
It becomes highlight_green%28+0+%29=0.
Result: 0=0
This is an equation! Solutions: T=80.4185022026432.
